As you all probably know, I'm a makeup nut. I think it's fun to change up your makeup with each season, and some of my favourite colours just happen to be perfect for fall! On the daily, you can catch me in neutral browns, but I do love to mix in these other shades for a different look. The best part is these colours above can all be combined to create awesome looks! Coppery tones like
Baked mixed with
Buck and a little
Vanilla highlight are great for an everyday look. Burgundy tones like
Roach are amazing on blue and green eyes, and
Loaded is perfect for darker ones. I didn't plan on this being an Urban Decay post, but it just so happened that my favourite shades are all from the same brand.
How to combine them:
Baked on lid + Buck in crease + Vanilla under brow = A pretty everyday look
Vanilla on lid + Roach in crease = A flirty subtle pink-toned look
Baked on lid + Loaded in crease + Vanilla under brow = A dramatic woodsy look
Buck on lid + Roach in crease + Vanilla under brow = A neutral smokey look
Loaded on lid + Roach in crease = A dramatic dark smokey look
What are your favourite eyeshadow colours for fall??
Oh I'm happy to have one of each color family :))
ReplyDeleteI like loaded and roach from your list, but I don't wear much eye shadow, it doesn't look so good on me haha
ReplyDeletelove these! so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI have the top 3 - or similar from MAC. I like to use vanilla as the base, then buck on the lid and then the roach as an accent on the crease.
ReplyDeleteRoach looks like such a lovely color! I might have to go and check that out! Lovely post as always xx

I don't tend to change up my makeup for different seasons however this autumn i've been really in to wearing copper, bronze, gold and plum/purple tones. I tend to just go for a completely neutral eye all year round but yeah, loving the more "autumny" colours xx
ReplyDeleteI don't wear my eyeshadow, but I love vanilla shades in the inner corners of my eyes for a pop on a tired morning!

I'm sooo into orange shadow this fall. I recently found a Cover Girl quad I dig -- orange on the lid, lime green (which is very pale) as highlighter under the eyebrow. I use the aqua green or the royal blue as eyeliner on top and bottom. It's excellent.
ReplyDeleteOh geez - Urban Decay is SO dangerous! I have quite a few of their palettes and some individual shadows... and of course they're having their Friends and Family sale and I want more. Go figure. =)
ReplyDeleteLooove all of these colours. Definitely need these!

Baked has been my absolute favorite eye color for years now. I'm loving roach and loaded.
ReplyDeleteI love the color combinations, I want to buy all of these shadows now!
ReplyDeleteUrban Decay is my absolute favourite eye makeup brand. I typically do quite a bright eye and while I'm partial to their fuchsia, I really do switch the colours up almost daily. That being said, I've never bought a shadow with a green hue -- for some reason it just freaks me out. Thanks for providing me with instructions on how to wear it, I'm definitely going to try Loaded now.
ReplyDeletethese are such pretty & natural colors..perfect for fall! thanks for sharing! xo
ReplyDeleteLoaded is my favorite out of all of these. That color is so gorgeous. I don't normally wear green eyeshadow though, because I like to keep my blue eyes looking more blue than gray or green.
